Odd Future

Odd Future
I keep my ideals set high, so my destiny's never compromised!
(What's left to do?)
You need to reap everything that you have sown
Otherwise, I would [??] know if they've grown
Every dream I hold, fading in front of me
Take a look into the past
I cannot see where my innocence has ever forsaken me
Telling me to always just believe
Keeping mistakes where they should be
Blurred far in the past

(What's going on?)
I'm here again contemplating existence
Flipping through nostalgia, longing for its comfort
(What's going on?)
I'm drowning out all the words that try holding me down
I am a crucible, come fight me...
Dreaming!
Of a time when intentions were pure
And good, the world had not infected
Our hearts and minds
Now we cannot escape this midnight!
Futures are not promised, they are not given things
Resolved, we cannot know what lies ahead
Push back against the notion that life will have mercy on me
I keep my ideals in line
If I can keep my dreams and aspirations
Filled with hope, I know that that I will succeed
Hark, I hear the dawn sing as destiny unfurls before me
